datadiffusion Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Fun! You can pretty much go all over it, its in a timewarp from 1971, but wasn't fighting even a decade before I think, just an accomodation/training ship. Best £15 I've spent for a while. Must have been 5 last time I went on it... Proper vintage electronic ***** to look at too!

jimludwig Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Occasionally I dip into these to see what the chatter is. I don't normally post things. Almost sorry I looked at this thread, given the pages of less-than-productive banter to a simple question! Matt5595 - in answer to your original question, yes the Veritas PCB has changed (several years ago), but you can feel free to swap out the old one, since the board mounting and terminal layouts were unchanged. The PCB now includes auto-resetting PTCs instead of glass fuses. No this wasn't a standards-related change (as someone alluded to), it was to make life easier for customers. James' point below about it being potential easier to replace the entire thing, ousting and all, is valid. His comment about replacing it with another brand, however, is suspect... As is your later praise of that "equipment" that Honeywell sells! ;-) Not sure if they changed the mounting points. But how much more is a complete panel or an accenta etc just in case its different. Rip it out and put an accenta lcd in its place. You wouldn't get a new tx with a pcb only Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisMurphy Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 True. But we all have different priorities, and I get to what I can. Ello Jim, maybe you could get the chance to look into the fact that our last 5 r8+ installs had issues with the bell NOT sounding when you enter a guard zone during the entry time. Turn off EN50131 and all is better. There was a thread started about it, and I rang texe tech support (prior to that) but apparently they could not replicate the issue.

matthew.brough Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Will not be using them anymore until I get something solid sorted out. I'm sure the loss of £200 of panels sales will slam Texecom into administration overnight Quote www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisMurphy Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Personally I think Texe would want to know about any "faults". Irellevant of our spending on said panels. However Matt our relationship with Texe is partly based on our loyalty to them as a panel supplier for a long long time. I am very sure they have valued our business over the years. Is there anyone on the planet that has had a long term business relationship with you? Or ever will have? where's gaz and norman etc... when u need them lol Quote 30 years of experience, ssaib approved family business.
